    Pickup the 2.5 Liter Ultrasonic Cleaner from harbor freight and a gallon of simple green. Cleans parts to brand new in under 10 minutes. I use it for all the little bits that are gross. Others I use a large plastic tub filled with simple green and let parts just soak.

      @@gsfootage5959 true. Also brake clean removes paint and breaks down rubber bits, degreaser doesn’t. Don’t ask how I know. Enjoying the build. I’m right behind you in EFI install and the CPP box

    Note nut torque for pitman arm is 120 to 160 ft. lbs and gear box mounting bolts are 60 to 80 ft. lbs according to the 1970 chevelle assembly manual. Rag joint nuts at 15 to 25 ft. lbs.

    Will these part numbers essentially fit the 71 Chevelle?

    What power steering hoses are you using? I’m running the same gearbox in my El Camino but can’t seem to find anything that fits right. Do you have a part number? Thanks for the videos man, they’ve saved my bacon!

      I think you can adjust that with the screws on the box. maybe reach out to cpp and they can provide more insight on how to do it. mine doesnt have too much

    I just put this same gearbox on my 70 chevelle, I’m curious if your steering is now much harder to turn like mine is and how you adjust for that.

    • @gsfootage5959
      @gsfootage5959  2 роки тому

      yeah mine got little tighter but not much harder to turn. I wonder if the bolt on top of the gear box is the adjustment for that

    • @ls87gbody

      The gear box is made with a different valving for increased steering feedback. A Cadillac you could drive with one finger, really easy to steer. Not so good for performance applications. You want some resistance in the steering wheel for a sense of feedback. More controllable .

      ​@@gsfootage5959the bolt on top is to take any "slack" out of the left to right steering. Not necessary to adjust on a new unit.

    I stopped watching when you pulled out the BFH to install the rag joint on the steering box. If you had removed the bolt, it would have slipped right on.
